4、Donald when he moves to town.

10、00）A.1998B.1999C.2000D.2001Passage 2 Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage: Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory（印第安人保护区） that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. （77）

11、he was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner.

12、 16, his mother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports.

13、am. (78) The team paid him only $ 15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete(运动员) in several sports, including baseball, running, and football.

15、,500-meter race. The decathlon has ten track and field events， with running, jumping ,and throwing contests. People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Swe

19、.C.Thorpe once played on a baseball team for money.D.In 1950, Thorpe was named the greatest American football player.Passage 3 Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage: It can be really frustrating (使人沮丧的) for an overweight person to go to a gym and work out with a positive attitude. Al

20、l one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy, sweating,“skinny”members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are, well, zaftig.

21、olated when joining workout classes or while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now the fitness industry is finally paying attention.

22、e no allowed. There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate.
